The one big thing that I love about my CLA is the seats. Glad to see that the C63 will have them!
Interesting, they do look the same as those of the A & CLA45, I thought they would be different for the new model 205 C63
It may probably depend on market to market place as to which or what will be the final fitments.
Here in Australia we will only receive the top spec new C63 AMG 'S' as is the case also for the A & CLA45 AMG's which come only in top spec with all the extra goodies.

Agree, they are indeed very nice (aesthetically speaking) just thought or hoped they would be different in the new C Class I've driven both A & CLA45's and those seats are not as comfortable nor better supporting IMHO as the current W/C204 AMG seats.
Eagerly awaiting to see the final product also wonder if the upcoming coupe will have different seats or seating design to the sedan and wagon as was the case with the W/C204 model range.
Also not surprised they're Recaros AFAIK I think MB have always used Recaro they are an OEM seating supplier to most of the Euro car manufacturers, I have an 11 year old Opel and the whole model range of that particular model even the non sport variants were fitted with Recaro seats
Don't follow the C series much as I don't fit, but just saw these seats in a AMG C Class on Sunday at Duke's in Huntington Beach. It also had an AMG tag on the side of the front fenders that said V8 Twin Turbo in a style I have never seen before. Backed up so close to the wall I could not see what kind of plates, if any, it had on it. Car was beautiful. Did I just see a new one that is not yet released? I know that it I NOT the current model running around everywhere here in SoCal.
AMG is really catching up with their performance options. Everything from the Performance Exhaust to the Performance Seats seem top notch. It's a no brainer if you can afford them!
I wish made AMG deciding between coupe and sedan as easy!

lol, are you sure you saw a C class. Because there is no such thing as a C class with a V8 twin turbo... not yet any way.
Remember that Mercedes vehicles all look the same now, just like BMW and Audi with a same vehicle different size offerings. You probably saw a 2014 E63 that had a V8 BiTurbo badge. But I imagine that if you are an E63 owner then you should know an E63 if you saw one, even if it now blends in with all the other MB vehicles.

Interesting you may have indeed seen what your thinking or possibly another test mule.
Would be good if the badging ends up saying twin turbo rather than bi turbo

Agree if you can afford one then there's no reason not to have one in your garage
Variant choice is an easy one for me - coupe or nothing and am more than happy to wait

He could have very well been looking at W205 C63 prototype/test or maybe even production vehicle

I seriously doubt it. He lives in CA so there is a 99% chance he saw someone in a C300 with fake AMG badges and a V8 twin turbo badge from another vehicle that they found on Ebay.
Absolutely a C Class, and not a poser C300. Often see cars that, in theory, don't exist here in SoCal. Remember reading about a car that was only in Europe, and then saw it on the 405 that afternoon. Road & Track, in Newport Beach, used to test cars, and have them, before they started selling to the public. Many years ago I saw the new S500 before it was released at a Hooters. It did have "Manufacturers" plates on it. And I once followed a "Manufacturer" A Class into Fletcher Jones Mercedes one morning. The AMG Badging on the car Sunday was something I have not seen before and can't find it on the web anywhere, but honestly have not really looked that hard. It was gone when we left after dinner. Again, it was strikingly beautiful and looked like it wanted to eat anything in front of it!

I can't tell you what you saw but I can tell you with full confidence that you did NOT see a W205 C63 driving around in CA without camo.
AMG has one and only one Badge (with S and without S), so if you saw an AMG badge you didn't recognize then you saw a fake badge...
Yes, the AMG badge was on the trunk lid. I am referring to the "engine" badging on the front fenders.
Only time will tell, we'll know in 10 days

LOL that's funny, it happens everywhere I live in Australia and once spotted a basic C Class sedan completely stock standard and what appeared to me to be a C180 with the same C63 and AMG badges on it as that pic above - why people do that is beyond me too

There are a lot of prototype cars running around California all year round. A few of the guys working at HG saw the BMW F82 M4 prototypes over 6 months before the car was released around Santa Barbara, for example.

It's definitely possible he saw a W205 C63 AMG
Without Camo? Sorry... that's IMPOSSIBLE!
Also, just because BMW does it doesn't meant that MB would... especially AMG. FACT!
Seats look more rigid and firmer than previous. Side bolsters look like they will hold up better over time without stretching and wrinkling from getting in and out. I also like the front seat depth extension similar to the S5. Slimmer profile and less is more for sure. They made something great even better. Well done AMG.
